Todd and I are taking the girls up north for the weekend of June 22-24th to camp and play in the woods! Looking forward to it and it would be so much more fun if some of you wanted to join us! Hikin' up the mountian on Saturday. Hangin' around Friday.....

Wow....what a terrific weekend! Thanks Todd and Diane for putting this together. It was like a "reunion" and maybe we should plan to do this every couple of months.

I'm sold on the hucktinis and can't wait for the huckaritas.

The camp spot was excellent, the hike was MOST excellent (even though I was one of the 9 who turned around just before the saddle), the food was beyond excellent and the company was stellar! A campfire would have been an added plus but we did OK without one.

Great to see everyone and meet Heidi's friend, Elisa (not sure how she spells it)

Thx for putting this together. You never fail to amaze me with how much fun you all have and the food, well what can I say! Thx for sharing your food with me. Just loved the tomatoes and computers and Trish's corn salad. Oh, and I always like trying Todd's new concoctions.

I'm glad I have some new huckleberry converts . The next event will feature Huckaritas for sure.

Thx for letting me get in a good training hike before my Glacier Park trip. Kendrick was the perfect hike for that except that my quads are killing me. And I have to go up and down stairs at home so it was a bit trying.

Diane had mentioned she didn't recall seeing the Hart Prarie videos I put together so here are the links to the arizonahikers.com at Hart Prairie 2010 videos:

We sure timed that work weekend perfectly as the photos and videos from then were just wonderful. I look forward to our work weekend this year.

Thx again everyone, it was a great GHOTM weekend. Here is the video of our camping and our hiking and my hike and our camping: http://youtu.be/B9TLA8qh9ko

Nice Tibber, took a lookie loo at your Tibber Productions (I like that) moving pitures.
Forgot to mention the butterfles the firs time I posted. those were realy cool looking, wings flapping and all. Nice shot
It was a nice weekend away away from the heat and you all did get that nice campspot. The girls look like they are calmer and more adjusted to outdoors on this trip. They are getting the hang of it !
And the frisbee toss was a good way to tire them some to allow you to sit and relax.

Don't remember seeing the Hart Prairie ones either, that was nice. Didn't think I was there that trip but I guess I was (you caught me loafing eek!)
But it is pretty up there and an excuse to breathe it all in

When are we going back to Hart Prairie ? Want to pencil it in so I can go this year ..._________________Photos: http://www.pbase.com/desertgirl/galleries
